Summary

Brexit’s human cost is showing up in unexpected ways: areas that voted to leave the EU are seeing the fastest growth in foreign workers — not because they had more, but because they had less to begin with. Health and care sectors are leading this shift, bringing new faces to communities less used to diversity. Yet, alongside this influx, these same regions are grappling with rising deprivation and economic stagnation, painting a complex picture where migration and hardship are intertwined — and where Brexit is just one of many forces at play.
